DTM syzygy status

Are these "hard disk fillers" still under construction?!

I am not even sure what you mean by 'DTM syzygy'. I thought that syzygy EGT by definition are DTZ50. So any DTM EGT would not be syzygy. And there already exist plenty DTM EGT formats.

A while ago, if I remember correctly, Ronald started working on modifications to his existing TB generator that allowed to create DTM50 EGT. I assume the OP refers to that activity. And "syzygy" was Ronald's user nickname here, wasn't it?

Well, DTM50 is not the same as DTM.

And, if such EGT would ever come to exist, it would be very bad and a cause of great confusion if they would have the same name as the syzygy DTZ50 EGTs. Names or EGT flavors should be unique.

What about letting the author itself decide about the name, as soon as there is something ready?

As long as it would be a name that would not cause confusion or other problems, that seems fine.
